My T is OCD married to a BPD.....i know this because he does a ton of disclosure and compares me to his wife at times. He also does not know much about BPD because he can barely explain it to me. His wife did a year of DBT and he said he read about DBT and thought it was boring. He thinks it helped a little for her but feels she improved because his parts relaxed towards her moods.

Now if he can not help her how can he help me? Oh thats right....I do not have BPD! I am also parnoid she might be on here and figured out I am her husbands client or that he is on here and can figure out this is me. It would really explain his total attitude shift towards me and it is not for the better.

iI have titrated sessions.

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
